Silver Snakes - Saboteur (2016)
Saboteur's industrial, goth, and 90s alternative rock sees Silver Snakes bringing new inspiration to their palette and, for the most part, it works brilliantly. 'Glass' could be mistaken for an Alchemy Index-era Thrice track put through Nine Inch Nails’, electronic-heavy production lens - teeth down glass down a chalk board. Tonally, aesthetically, and structurally hard hitting, and enjoyable just as much as the track is engulfing; and as great as this is, there are occasional moments - the growls on 'Devotion', or 'Charmer', for example - that leave you wincing, wondering if Silver Snakes went a little too far with their new influences, or that it's bordering on derivative rather than inspiration. That said, moments such as these are pretty quickly forgotten when you come across consistently sterling moments like Estrada's closing Tool-esque vocals on 'Devotion'; every single hypnotic part of 'Dresden' falling into place; and Estrada's vocal performance on closer 'The Loss', his full on varied styles leaving very little to be desired. Silver Snakes have hit a massive step up from their previous releases, which were still of significant worth - it's about time they get some reward for their great work. B.W.
Saboteur...
Sometimes I feel like this is all just a dress rehearsal and when it’s show time, and my life actually begins then I’ll be great.The truth is, this is IT!
There is no dress rehearsal, my life is playing out and I’m still in the dressing room, staring in the mirror and talking myself out of going out to live my life.
I’ve lost a lot of time and I’m trying to tell myself that there is so much more to come. I have a sincere desire to live but the saboteur within gets stronger everyday…
